I really like the ribbon holders from Michael's, but I found that a lot of my ribbon didn't fit or I had to cut down the trimming and try to shove them in. I bought this curtain rod from (yes you guessed it) IKEA about a year ago for a whopping $1.99 and debated whether or not to use it. I like how it's displayed, but we'll see if they unravel after a while. There jammed in there pretty good so they are supporting themselves as well.
I also put my desks back the way they were before. The room is 10' x 11' and is too small to have 1 giant desk in the middle. When I do have more than 1 person over I can always screw the legs onto the 2nd smaller desk to make 1 large one again.
